Pros

Love some staff friendships and building relationships with each student. Very rewarding.

Cons

- health insurance is expensive and no one has ever heard of it. Can’t find a doctor in network if you don’t live near PA. - they make you work from the minute you clock in to the minute you leave. - if there is a snow day, you have to use your precious PTO that took you months to accrue. - they don’t penalize salary staff for being late, only the paraprofessionals - admin and teachers have a power trip over the paras. - they guilt trip you and use “the safety of our students” - HR doesn’t get back to you unless it’s in their favor. - very poorly staffed and paras have to work harder to make up for it. - no communication between admin and its noticeable throughout the entire building.

Pros

Bancroft is filled with people who have big hearts and love their job

Cons

People join young and stay for a long time without any professional development so many leaders do not have leadership skills even if they believe their heart is in the right place beause Bancroft does not provide this growth and instead continues to promote the best person available even if they aren't right for the job.
